John 16:16-22

16“1A littleG3398 whileG3398, and 2you noG3765 longerG3765 are going to seeG3708 Me; and againG3825 a littleG3398 whileG3398, and 3you will seeG3708 Me.”

17SoG3767 someG1537 ofG1537 His disciplesG3101 saidG3004 to oneG240 anotherG240, “WhatG5101 is thisG3778 that He is tellingG3004 us, ‘4A littleG3398 whileG3398, and you are not going to seeG3708 Me; and againG3825 a littleG3398 whileG3398, and you will seeG3708 Me’; and, ‘becauseG3754 5I am goingG5217 to the FatherG3962’?”

18SoG3767 they were sayingG3004, “WhatG5101 is thisG3778 that He saysG3004, ‘A littleG3398 whileG3398’? We do not knowG3609 whatG5101 He is talkingG2980 about.”

196JesusG2424 knewG1097 that they wantedG2309 to questionG2065 Him, and He saidG3004 to them, “Are you deliberatingG2212 togetherG3326G240 aboutG4012 thisG3778, that I saidG3004, ‘A littleG3398 whileG3398, and you are not going to seeG3708 Me, and againG3825 a littleG3398 whileG3398, and you will seeG3708 Me’?

20TrulyG281, trulyG281 I sayG3004 to you that 7you will weepG2799 and mournG2354, but the worldG2889 will rejoiceG5463; you will grieveG3076, but 8your griefG3077 will be turnedG1096 into joyG5479!

219WheneverG3752 a womanG1135 is in laborG5088 she hasG2192 10painG3077, becauseG3754 her hourG5610 has comeG2064; but whenG3752 she givesG1080 birthG1080 to the childG3813, she noG3765 longerG3765 remembersG3421 the anguishG2347 becauseG3754 of the joyG5479 that a 11childG444 has been bornG1080 into the worldG2889.

22ThereforeG3767 12you tooG2532 haveG2192 griefG3077 nowG3568; but 13I will seeG3708 you againG3825, and your heartG2588 will rejoiceG5463, and noG3762 oneG3762 is going to takeG142 your joyG5479 awayG142 from you.
